Chapter 426 Your Majesty, you should reward her.
Wen Jiu nodded subconsciously, and Liang Jiugong immediately said with a smile: "Miss, you are really quick. This smell is very good to me. Your Majesty will be very happy after eating it."
As he spoke, Liang Jiugong turned around and waved to the eunuchs behind him, saying, "Hurry up and take it from the girl."
He smiled and said to Wen Jiu, "Thank you for the trouble, young lady. I will deliver it to the emperor right away."
In the blink of an eye, Liang Jiugong packed the food and left with the little eunuch.
As soon as he left the house, he let out a long sigh. The eunuch beside him patted his chest and said, "Grandpa Liang, the looks from the other gentlemen just now were really scary. We didn't do anything wrong, did we?"
After all, he was on duty in front of the emperor and was used to being flattered wherever he went. Suddenly seeing a few masters like this, the young eunuch felt a little nervous.
Liang Jiugong patted the eunuch's shoulder soothingly: "It's not a big deal. I think the gentlemen are a little upset because they didn't have enough food. Don't worry about it."
He really did nothing wrong. He just stole the food from a few gentlemen. It would be strange if he liked them. Fortunately, he was a little faster.
The young eunuch heard what was said and immediately smiled and said, "With what Grandpa Liang said, I feel relieved. Grandpa Liang, this Miss Wen is really beautiful. I have never seen such a beautiful person in my life."
Liang Jiugong nodded, thinking that this was the first time he had ever seen such a beautiful person in his life. When he first saw this girl's appearance, wasn't he also shocked? Thinking of Miss Wen, Liang Jiugong couldn't help but say one more thing: "This girl's ability is more than just her looks."
The young eunuch nodded immediately. "Grandpa Liang is right. I just saw it. All the chefs were leaning over the dishes, staring at them with their eyes wide open. The princes also seemed to be extremely curious. I guess Miss Wen's dish is excellent."
Liang Jiugong nodded. Isn't that right? Even His Majesty would be thinking about this, right?
Earlier, the Emperor had been asleep when he suddenly called him over. Liang Jiugong was startled, for who would have thought that the Emperor would assign him such a task?
Judging from the situation in the imperial kitchen just now, it was obvious that the gentlemen had already had a meal.
Or maybe it’s just that His Majesty is His Majesty. I guess His Majesty has already understood the temperaments of all the princes thoroughly.
He glanced at the food box, and his Adam's apple couldn't help but move up and down. You have to say, this thing smells really good.
The Tenth Master, looking at Liang Jiugong's back, rolled his eyes and said, "The Emperor is really good at calculating time. If there is anything delicious, he will definitely not miss it."
Jiu Ye stared blankly at his empty plate and shifted his gaze to Wen Jiu with resentment: "Little Fourth Sister-in-law, the food has been taken away by the Emperor..."
Warming the wine: "..."
Well, she heard clearly what Jiu Ye meant. Obviously, he wanted her to make another one for him.
This was not a difficult task. Wen Jiu nodded immediately, but before he could say anything, he heard the Eighth Master on the other end speaking with a frown.
"What are you two talking about? The whole world belongs to the Emperor. If there are good things, they should be presented to the Emperor first. In fact, the first portion should not be eaten. It should be given to the Emperor first."
As soon as these words were spoken, the surroundings suddenly became quiet for a moment.
Master Shi blinked twice and said, "My dear, you didn't get to eat it, so you said that on purpose, didn't you?"
Jiu Ye immediately chimed in, "How could Eighth Brother say that before he even gets to eat it? Eighth Brother respects the Emperor the most. He definitely won't eat anything until the Emperor has tasted it." He then turned back to Wen Jiu and said, "Little Fourth Sister-in-law, you don't have to cook for Eighth Brother later. He won't eat it."
Eighth Master: “…Ninth Master!” Eighth Master was so angry that veins on his forehead jumped, but Ninth Master just smiled at him, turned around and ran to warm the wine, and continued to study the food.
Emperor Kangxi couldn't fall asleep after all. Seeing Liang Jiugong bringing back food, he simply didn't sleep anymore. He got up and had a meal with his two concubines.
"Did Miss Wen make a new dish?" Emperor Kangxi asked casually after taking a look. He sniffed and sighed, "It smells so good."
As soon as you smell this dish, you can tell it was made by that girl Wen.
In any dish prepared by the kitchen, I dare not use even a little bit of onion, ginger, or garlic. I'm afraid it will leave a bad taste in his mouth and cause taboos. But dishes with a strong garlic aroma are still very tempting.
Liang Jiugong set the table for Emperor Kangxi and said with a smile, "That's right. I guess the young lady wants to try some new dishes for His Majesty."
Emperor Kangxi nodded in a good mood, picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of fish and put it into his mouth?
After chewing it carefully, he immediately praised: "Hmm, not bad."
After taking several mouthfuls, Emperor Kangxi finally remembered that there were people around him. He coughed lightly and said, "My two beloved concubines, please also pick up your chopsticks. Miss Wen's food is quite good."
"Yes," the two responded in unison.
Defei knew that the food with warm wine tasted great, and she had been feeling greedy for it long ago. Now she didn't hesitate and picked up the chopsticks to pick up the dishes.
She nodded as she ate, smiling broadly as she said, "It tastes really good. Jiu'er has put a lot of effort into it. Your Majesty, I think you deserve a reward."
Emperor Kangxi nodded in agreement: "Of course I will reward you."
After agreeing to this, Emperor Kangxi kept tapping his chopsticks one after another without stopping, and he didn't even bother to talk to the two people next to him.
Concubine Hui has been sitting in Yonghe Palace until now, waiting for this dish.
She wanted to see what other dishes could be made of. She picked up the chopsticks swiftly and took a big bite.
After entering, Concubine Hui frowned immediately.
It was the first time she had tasted such a spicy and stimulating flavor. After swallowing it calmly, she was stunned for a moment and immediately stretched out her chopsticks again.
On weekdays, Concubine Hui was a person who loved spicy and spicy food, with a strong taste. She always felt that the food sent by the kitchen on weekdays was tasteless, and sometimes she would even ask them to prepare some sauces and eat it herself.
But today the taste is extremely strong, numbing and spicy, and it feels extremely delicious when you put it in your mouth.
Looking at the red soup in the basin, Concubine Hui swallowed her saliva and asked someone to bring a spoon. After taking a spoonful of soup into her mouth, the corners of Concubine Hui's mouth curled up, and she closed her eyes and savored it for a long time.
When they had almost finished their dishes, Emperor Kangxi and Concubine De unconsciously put down their chopsticks.
Concubine Hui still didn't stop, drinking the red soup one spoonful after another.
